Motivation behind C++ Concepts

  • C++ 20 introduced concepts as a powerful tool to write generic code with compile-time restrictions.
  • Templates in C++ can be used to simplify writing multiple versions of a function with different parameter types.
  • Using std::variant and std::any for type erasure types in C++ can hold multiple variable types at runtime.
  • In C++ 17 and after, the use of std::variant and std::any can restrict the types allowed in a function.
  • Concepts can be utilized along with templates to restrict types allowed in a function and simplify code.
  • std::enable_if in C++ enables activating functions based on certain conditions being true.
  • std::enable_if is commonly used with templates and introduces a concept called SFINAE.
  • Concepts introduced in C++ 20 offer a cleaner and more concise way to handle type restrictions in functions.
  • With concepts, the compiler chooses the most restrictive option if multiple functions could match.
  • Concepts in C++ can be chained together and allow creating concepts with other concepts.
